“The Baltimorons” is an independent American comedy film directed by Jay Duplass, who co-wrote the screenplay with Michael Strassner. Strassner, Liz Larsen, and Olivia Luccardi star in the movie. It premiered at the 2025 South by Southwest Film & TV Festival and received positive reviews for its writing, chemistry between Strassner and Larsen, and Duplass’s understated but effective direction, making this a heartfelt holiday comedy. Duplass, Strassner, and Larsen were all kind enough to spend time speaking with us about their work and experiences making the film, which you can listen to or watch below. Please be sure to check out the film, now playing in theaters from Independent Film Company. Thank you, and enjoy!
